With the cooler weather arriving soon, it might be time to pull the good old slow cooker (sometimes called Crockpot) out of the cupboard and make some delicious winter warming favourites. A new and tasty recipe (all taste tested by my family!) will be added every week.
Slow Cooker Sweet & Sour Chicken
1 medium onion, diced
1 medium carrot, peeled, sliced
1 medium celery stalk, sliced
6 boneless skinless chicken thighs (around a kilogram or so.), cut into bite-size pieces
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/3 cup KRAFT Italian Dressing
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tsp. grated ginger
1 can pineapple pieces, drained, (juice reserved)
1 Tbsp. corn flour
1 medium green capsicum, sliced
1 medium red capsicum, sliced
4-1/2 cups hot cooked rice
PLACE onions, carrots and celery in slow cooker; top with chicken.
ADD combined brown sugar, dressing, soy sauce and ginger. Cover with lid.
COOK on LOW for 7 to 8 hours (or on HIGH for 3-1/2 to 4 hours). During last 30 min. of cooking time, increase to HIGH. Stir corn flour into reserved pineapple juice; add to slow cooker along with the pineapple and capsicums.
Then cook further 30 min. or until capsicums are tender and sauce is thickened. Serve over the steaming hot rice.
Enjoy!
this sounds so yummy I love sweet and sour anything , what a good idea doing winter recipe once a week I need all the help I can get, If I ever get my kitchen back off my hubby
this sounds great I am going to make it 1 night next week. I love winter for recipes like this especially in the slowcooker.
I love to use my slow cooker and enjoy trying new recipes using this cooking method. Everything comes out so tender and tasty. I will have to give this one a go and share some of my own recipes in future. Thank you.
I made this last night with fried rice and the whole family loved it. Said “It’s just as good as in the chinese resturants.”
Thankyou so much for the recipe was fantastic.
